Bob,
To log into vcs, first log into mgt.
He can't. He doesn't have a static IP address (as far as I know --
Tomasz, if I'm wrong, let me know). I asked him to ask sysadmin for an
account on fencepost but I don't think that has happened yet.
There is a firewall on all of the VMs that prevents direct access
from the Internet.
At least at the iptables level, that is not true for vcs, which is
precisely why I (tried to) set Tomasz up the way I did. It allows ssh
from anywhere since that is necessary for some VC access.
However, do you know if there is some other "firewall"-type thing
(whatever that means) that would stop "ssh r...@vcs.sv.gnu.org" at the
user level (not the ssh level), resulting in the usual "Permission
denied (publickey)."? Tomasz hasn't been able to log in yet. All very
frustrating.
I know there is an FSF "firewall" in front of Savannah but as far as I
know it would not be affecting this.
